mike H 456 Posted May 23, 2016 Report Share Posted May 23, 2016 English teacher noticed that little Billy was not writing anything down in class. So she asked him why? He replied my pencil is broke. She said then sharpen it. I can't I ain't got a pencil sharpener. With that she called little Billy to come and stand in front of the class. Billy you do not say I ain't got a pencil sharpener. You should say. I do not have a pencil sharpener You do not have a pencil sharpener. We do not have a pencil sharpener They do not have a pencil sharpener.

Tristarcaptain 282 Posted May 24, 2016 Report Share Posted May 24, 2016 A ditzy blonde goes into a department store to look for some net curtains. At the right section, the sales associate asks if he can help her. She replied that she was looking for some net curtains and she gave the size. The associate was shocked at the minute dimensions and commented that she must have small windows. 'Oh no', she said, 'they are for my computer'. 'But Miss' replied the associate, 'computers don't need curtains'. 'Hello'...she replied 'It has Windows'. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Coffee 2,030 Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 I read a statistic from some study that claimed that 45% of women believe that the first thing a man thinks of when he sees a woman is sex. I don't believe it. I doubt that 55% of women are that naive. They also found that 50% of women believed that when a man in an adjacent car glances over, the man is looking at her car...and the other 50% believed he is more likely to be looking at her...a trick question of course, because usually a man will be thinking along the lines of "I'd like to do her in her car"...so they are all actually correct. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Apple computers announced today that it has developed a computer chip that can store and play Hi Fi music in women’s Breast implants. The iTit will cost between $499 and $699.00 depending on speaker size.

Captain Coffee 2,030 Posted June 25, 2016 Report Share Posted June 25, 2016 (edited) I can't tell you how excited I am that two stunning Aviation world records are soon going to be set. The second one is of course going to be the first electric plane to circumnavigate the globe... The Solar Impulse aircraft. Kudos in advance to the entire Solar Impulse aircraft team! Kudos as well to the Solar Impulse Ground and Support team for setting the first of the two records... The world's first aircraft hanger to circumnavigate the globe and beat its occupant on every leg. Edited June 25, 2016 by Captain Coffee Link to post Share on other sites

I need a Tall person? To the tall guy that raised his hand: "You will be emptying the trash every night as you can reach over the dumpster to dump it". Someone "Sharp Sighted"...ok, you will be the toilet cleaner so that you won't miss a single speck. :-O Then he called out..."Is their an artist in the house?" I hesitantly raised my hand because I was fairly good with a pencil. I was allowed to spend most of the "barrack cleaning days" in the TI office at the desk drawing a "Thankyou" gift for our TI's since apparently "cash and presents weren't permitted"...ahahaha. (Seriously..wtf...as IF anyone thought there was any posibility we'd consider Thanking these guys on day #1). As it transpired, our "Alternate TI" turned out to be a righteous and good guy, while our Lead TI got reassigned just a week or two into our training allowing Staff Sergeant Randall tto take over our squad (thankfully, the first Lead TI was a f'n Jerk, and not just TI sytle jerk...he was Jerk to the Bone and had no bizness leading people or training them). When Basic Training was over we were actually sad to say goodbye to TI Staff Sergent Randall, and I hope he still has the drawing of the F-104 Starfighter and AirForce shield that I drew, and we all signed in thanks for a rather good experience after all. Especially for the lucky artist that never had to clean the barracks. Edited June 27, 2016 by Captain Coffee 1 Link to post Share on other sites
allardjd 1,853 Posted June 27, 2016 Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 Old home week here, I guess. I had a similar experience in Navy boot camp. I was the only guy in the company who could type (1966, about a hundred guys). During our "service week" the whole company did mess hall duty while I sat in an air conditioned office and typed duty lists for the company commander. Sometimes things just work out. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
brett 2,314 Posted June 27, 2016 Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 Great compilation John, if there is one thing I learned in two tours is that it is not always an easy job being in the service but mostly everyone will keep a sense of humor to their situation. The drill instructors on up might have joked about things but they will let you know right away if you didn't take things completely serious, therefor any laughing or grabassing was kept to a five second maximum (that is the Marines, all others got a ten second max).
